It's spam. Look at the URL of the link they provide.

Hmmm, it's definitely not random spam from Sony.
I am unable to log in to the PSN with that account now =(. I'm pretty suprised that I got banned when there are so many other people out there with offensive names. Must have been quite a lot of complaints about me. Poor losers I say

I find it odd that the message you received doesn't mention your PSN ID anywhere.
What happened when you clicked the link in that message?
What happens when you try to log into PSN? Does it say account banned, or does it say incorrect password?

When I try to log in, it says "You may not access the PSN with this account". Other accounts are fine tho. The link goes to some Sony site with the ToS, and some common reasons for being banned.
I particularly like this one:
Community Standards Abuse
An act that breaks the various agreements required to be accepted to access and use anything on the PlayStation®Network that is not defined by other offenses.
Basically: "We can ban you for Anything".
Cheating
Doing or utilizing anything that gives the player a greater advantage than is intended for normal game play.
|
False Registration Information
Offender created an account with false information (email address, date of birth, name, address, etc.).
|
Reversal of charges
A console or account may be banned due to having a credit card charge reversed or "charge back" resulting in debt. A charge back can include credit card theft, identity theft, or non-approved use.
|
Share / Hijack Account
Sharing personal PSN account information in order to obtain access to another persons PSN account. Changing another persons email address, and/or password without their permission in order to gain and control access to an account. Offender attempted to use or take content they did not pay for.
|
Fraud
A console and/or account may be banned if it is associated with fraudulent purchases. (Credit card theft, identity theft or non-approved use by family or friends).
|
Disrupting a Game
Offender was caught doing something that disrupts another user playing a mini-game.
